“…However, due to the difficulties in controlling and quantifying the volume fraction of the nanoparticles actually deposited on the film, alternative fabrication methods were developed in which gold nanoclusters were embedded in the dielectric film via an RF magnetron co-sputtering process. Using an SPR substrate with embedded gold nanostructures, DNA hybridization experiments presented an improved detection performance of approximately 0.1 pg/mm 2 [35]. This technique provides a feasible and reliable method to control the optimal size and volume fraction of the gold nanoclusters embedded in the dielectric film without the need for complex strategies to amplify the SPR angle shift.…”

“…To improve the performance of SPR sensors, sensitivity enhancement has been of tremendous interest in the development of these sensors. In recent years, modified SPR sensing systems, such as gold nanoparticles immobilized on a gold film [5], gold nanoparticleembedded dielectric layer on a gold film [6], and metallic nanowires regularly patterned on a metal film [7], have been proposed theoretically and experimentally. Enhanced sensing characteristics are mainly associated with shift or bending in dispersion relation of propagating surface plasmon, induced by its strong coupling with localized plasmon resonance modes in metallic nanostructures [8].…”

“…Unfortunately, when sensing biomolecules of low molecular weight or in low concentration, the variation in SPR angle is very small and this causes difficulties in detecting the acquired signal [6]. Hence, several researchers have focused on enhancement of sensitivity of biomolecular sensor.…”
